This chapter examines the dominance of conservatism in West Germany during the 1950s. It discusses how the Christian conservatives gained legal restrictions on the sexual consumer goods industry with the Law on Youth-Endangering Texts and investigates the factors that hindered the mobilization of the state to truly inhibit the erotica industry's growth. The chapter also describes the legal problems encountered by many small erotica firms during this period.
